#282 Racism Is Hilarious

Queen & J. are two womanist race nerds talking liberation, politics, and pop-culture over tea. Drink up! On this episode…Glue gate is over! We talk about Tessica Brown, Gorilla Glue, and the ponytail that rocked the internet. Trying to keep our pets alive in a pandem, and how the United Nations went anti-Black for valentines day This week’s hot list: Whoopi Goldberg’s cheek bones deserve all the awards. Keeping your pet alive is expensive but lowkey worth it. Other Black podcasts you should be listening to. The biggest hair story in history, even the haters enjoyed it. Influencer culture and who deserves to profit off of the internet, the Rona, vaccinations and Black women’s labor stolen. 90 day fiance fatigue, flagrant colorism at the UN and mad other ish.
